Compensate

The bananas are starting to ripen
I take it as good news
You stopped asking how my day was
And for that my grief is tremendous

I drive around when I get nervous
Comfort is for the privileged
The gas tank's half full, but I am half empty
I'm compensating for my deprivation

Can you see I am trying my best
Is my agony worth your respect
I am alone, I am alone
What if the pain never lets me go

My brother announced he made a movie
But today I got the diagnosis
It makes me feel less crazy to know you think it too
But I've been waiting my whole life to hear it from you

Is it just me
Or do you see green in the dead of winter
My loneliness is seen by the aching of the weather
Barren trees look like me

Can you see I am trying my best
Is my agony worth your respect
I am alone, I am alone
What if nothing fills the hole

I'm at the red light alone on the road
There's lightning, now why would I go
Give me time to imagine that killing me
Meet my match by third degree

I'm at the red light alone on the road
There's lightning, now why would I go
Give me time to imagine that killing me
Meet my match by third degree

Can you see I am trying my best
Is my agony worth your respect
I am alone, I am alone
What if nothing fills the hole

Can you see I am trying my best
Is my agony worth your respect
I am alone, I am alone
What if the pain never lets me go
